aquarius – :
An amazing affordable (only 69 reais, something like 31 dollars, for 100ml bottle – sometimes you can even find it for 50 reais, what would be close to 20 dollars) fragrance from Boticario.
Is supposed to smell like violets (at least is what the Boticario website wants us to think). The official site says things like: “A combinação das notas florais lembram delicadas violetas” (The combination of floral notes reminds of delicate violets) and “Viaje rumo ao universo da Violeta e entregue-se a uma fragrância feminina e romântica” (travel to a violet universe and give yourself into a romantic and feminine fragrance).
The first blast is citrus and green. You can DEFINITELY get the bergamot, the mandarin and the green notes
After a while, the freesia and the iris begin to stand out with little bits of roses. The citrus tone down and the fragrance begins to become a little more flowery, but still green.
It does indeed remind me of the feeling of spring. A sunny spring day, looking at a nice garden near to a little river with crystal cool waters.
Even smelling a little like violets, that’s not what it is about. DON’T BUY IT if you’re looking for a powdery violet fragrance (go for Halloween, or something like that), cause is not powdery.
Basically, a green flowery scent. Almost Unisex.
Downsides:
1) doesn’t last on skin. I’m used to fragrances leave my skin quickly, but this one feels like a body splash sometimes.
2) The bottle, although is beautiful to look at, is terrible to hold and spray with just one hand. The base is too big and oval, the top is too thin. Those of you who tried to spray some of Rihanna’s fragrances (Reb’, Rebelle or Nude) knows what i’m talking about.
